In fact, you can post multiple posts per day if it's more like a short tip covered in 250-300 words. However, if you are into more research oriented topics and totally innovative stuff (e.g. like problogger posts) one cannot definitely post more than once a day.Having said that every blog business models has its merrits and demerrits. I must say that I like the way you churn out traffic and keep your readers happy via multiple short posts :) @Harsh,

I write almost 4-5 post a day some time it goes down to 2. But even if its 4-5 post, I catch up with something unique and new. The reason for the same is I cover latest tech updates , obviously they can't be named as real innovation but covering latest tech updates and news increase authority and major traffic driving point.

It was indeed a smart post with good points. It was fast read & effective points for beginners. Without a multi-blogger blog, I would essentially not think of posting several times a day.

As a blogger you have to work out your success & satisfaction formula! The niche, available time, goals etc are the parameters that we all have to juggle around :)<strong>@Gary</strong>, you seem to think along my views. I personally feel like posting 2-3 times a week. It works reasonably well for me though the traffic may have grown higher had I posted more often.<strong>@Karthik</strong>, bounce rate varies on various parameters and just one of the many reasons is stale content and timestamp.<strong>@Tyrant</strong>, you are absolutely right. Many of them write repeatedly about those software reviews or gadgets that you might have already read in many places. Some actually almost religiously copy content from big blogs as well. Such blogs don't really care about readership.<strong>@Raju</strong>, you have a great point here. Authority v/s Traffic and known readers v/s organic traffic. As you rightly said it's about what kind of business model you want to establish.<strong>@Tushar</strong>, that was the point as well. Even probloggers tend to post less frequently if they want to provide quality content.<strong>@Nihar</strong>, you seem to agree with the point that Raju raised (Please see my comment). But even if a blogger is a fulltime blogger, to create more than one good quality post per day is a big thing, I believe<strong>@Nick</strong>, That's another angle to it... Newbie v/s Pro or expert. Thanks for that comment Nick.Thank you all for your wonderful views :) @Samrat, Absolutely!

If you are an 'expert' in your subject, then probably posting several times per day will be no hard task; and you get the benefit of a bigger "virtual estate"; or a greater percentage of online presence.If you are a newbie in your niche, then probably you might run out of ideas and start posting short, uninteresting, or very technical oriented posts.

There are many blogs (especially tech blogs) which are purely for SE traffic and who don't give a damn for RSS subscribers and regular readers. They churn out articles after articles and its just their business model really. So, it just boils down to what you want? Authority? or just traffic?

Other than multi-blogger blog, I used to skip the contents if there are many posts per day. Its too boring. As a reader, I am ready to wait one or two days, but content should be worth for waiting. :-) I have seen some blogs just to make multi post per day, evaluate some stupid software or some irrelevant reviews.

You get less comments, quality of content decreases and readers wont pay much attention to your blog posts anymore.I think posting every 2 days is ideal for blogger.

I used to update my blog once 3 days or 3posts a week, and I received quite much comments in a blog and I was able to interact with my readers.When I update too frequent, says 1 post per day, and I see the number of comments obviously dropped. I think it depends on what you want, if you want to get more pages indexed by Google, then you post more; if you want better interaction with readers, then post less.Regards, Lee Ajith, I strongly agree with you with the point “Low comments per visit ratio” and “Reduced interaction levels”.
